My Love

...but I never said "I love you from the heart, til I said it to you..."-Reba McEntire, Til I Said It To You

I have had that song stuck in my head allll day. Because I'm crazy in love with my man. We have been together for almost two years and I'm still crazy about him. Some days, I feel like strangling him. And most, I just wanna love on him. He keeps me straight, he keeps me sane, he protects me, he makes me feel BEAUTIFUL! He loves everything about me even though he and I are complete opposite.  He is the neat freak, on time, always organized and planned out one and I am the slob, always late, never organized, messy, spontaneous one. But we are crazy for each other. From the first day I met him, I knew he was "the one" and I have every intention of marrying him someday.

Have I been in love before? Yes, twice. The first time was obviously my first love and I was seventeen and wild. Nothing mattered to me. My world revolved around him. Everything I did was HIM. And it was crazy. To this day, if you were to ask me why I fell for him, I couldn't give you an answer other than "You don't know him the way I do. You would have to be in my shoes to understand." And that's the truth. It was one of those loves that is completely unexplainable and has no reason, it just IS. But I don't regret ANY of it because it is because of that love that I am who I am today. It is because of that love that I have made some of the choices that have made me who I am today. And I still love him dearly. Of course I do, he was my first love.

The second love was something I did not expect. It just kinda happened. Didn't last very long but I can honestly say that yea, I loved him. I loved him because he showed another aspect of life. He showed me about hard work and dedication and success. He taught me about goals. He made me see that I can do absolutely anything I want to do if I put my mind to it and to this day, he and I are great friends. He was and still is the BEST first DATE I have ever had. We met on some circumstances that most people think is CRAZY and dangerous. But for us, it worked. And we were LUCKY and FORTUNATE for that.

But Rick. My LOVE. My future. It's not the butterflies, it's not the "sparks"....its the way I feel everyday knowing I am HIS and he is MINE. It's the security that I know that nomatter what I do, I will have someone there who loves me more than life itself, and THAT is something SO powerful! When I think of us, I think of our future. I think of our children...I think of 50 years from now when we're all old and wrinkly of how much LOVE and ADORATION we will STILL have for each other. To him, I am the most beautiful girl in the world. To me, he is Superman.
